If you can, you must catch Derby based band "The Souvenirs" at one of their local gigs.
Impressive is too small a word to describe this superb group of musicians,
from the opening lines of "Dan's On Drugs" to the final refrain of "Stanley Street"
you will be totally entertained.
Dale Dawson is the charismatic vocalist with the coruscating guitar work of Bobby Cowling,
Chris Thomas ties things together with his precision bass playing and Padraig Crowley's
drumming provides the rhythmical anchor.

My Photos published at last
If you happen to live in the town of Ilkeston in Derbyshire,
you can view some of my photos which have been included in a
"Yellow Pages" publication pushed through everyone's letter box.
After over 30 years of taking photos, this is the first time
I've had any commissioned and published.

Paddy Considine - "Riding The Low"
It's probably a surprise to the majority of his fans that actor Paddy Considine is also
an accomplished singer with his band "Riding The Low".
Influenced by bands such as Robert Pollard's "Guided By Voices", "Sparklehorse",
"My Morning Jacket", "The Smiths", "The Pixies", "The Flaming Lips", "Radiohead",
and "The Smashing Pumpkins".
Together with Chris Baldwin and Dan Baker on guitars, Dan Thompson on drums and
Richard Eaton on bass the band performs an exciting and powerful set of self-penned songs.
Based in the Midlands, gigs up to now have been performed in Burton-on-Trent,
Nottingham, Derby and London.
Not only has the band built up a fan base that extends across the UK, it also has a
following in both North America and New Zealand. This is thanks to an extremely
active forum that includes not only fans of his movies but Paddy himself.
